send HELO command, but RFC-2821 doesn't allow HELO command without argument.
private void helo(String domain) throws MessagingException
{
if (domain != null)
issueCommand("HELO " + domain, 250);
else
issueCommand("HELO", 250);
}
Since I work in the Java EE group, let me see if I could fix this bug, rather
than spend time working around this issue in Hudson...
